Why Business Needs to Be Involved in Implementing an IT Solution

Companies are often in trouble when they realize afterward that the IT solution that they implemented was not what they really wanted. This is usually an afterthought in which prior events were they sunk millions of dollars into the technical solution which was branded as the next big thing for the company. When the organization realizes that the technical solution was not the case then this leads to high ranking officials taking the fall for the lack of planning that was not performed to select the best solution to meet the company’s needs. This is a common theme in business which is worth repeating because of the number of failed projects which are still occurring in the information technology discipline. This is a very common problem to implement enterprise solutions when IT is decentralized in organizations.
